In 1999, the Chablis Grand Cru Valmur from Raveneau offers remarkable maturity, where chalky minerality combines with subtle notes of yellow peach and almond. The palate, of remarkable finesse, reveals a silky texture and a tension that gives it a beautiful length. It is a wine of discreet elegance, testifying to a beautiful endurance for its age.

Vinous Tasting Note

The 1999 Chablis Valmur Grand Cru has (for this domaine) a rich and almost decadent bouquet with layers of lightly honeyed fruit and flashes of linseed and sesame, the growing season dictating the aromatics over the terroir. The palate is well balanced, powerful and a contender for one of the most hedonistic Raveneau wines that I have encountered. Does that make it better? That depends on what you seek in a Chablis, though for me it maybe just misses a bit of the tension that I love about Raveneau's wines.
